Rush the Edge (Blue Devils Hockey Book 3), by S.J. Sylvis

 







Book Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Tropes: brother’s best friend, enemies-to-lovers, slow burn, hockey romance

Kane Barlow is a hockey star for the Chicago NHL team. He's best friends with River, and even lives in the same building, except a floor above him. Kane is roommates with Malaki, who is also on the same NHL team. Kane has a lot of superstitions that he does - he does certain things the night before a game, the morning before and even right before the game. He thinks doing all these things will bring him good luck and will be able to win games. 

Daisy has always been around her brother, River, and Kane. Growing up the three of them use to do mostly everything together. Kane didn't have much of a home life and almost always over at their house, dinners, sleepovers, weekends. Daisy & Kane became very close during high school. He confided in her instead of her brother, River, which brought a lot them closer together. Daisy didn't realize that Kane was in Chicago, she stopped following his career, to push her mind / thoughts away from him. 

River talks Kane into helping Daisy get a job at the stadium. Kane talks with the HR people about a job for Daisy, and of course he gets her a team mascot job, thinking she would turn it down. Daisy knows how to get Kane, and accepts the job, even though she's worried she will put her health at risk. But, she talked with the HR person and they know of her condition and if she needs to have a game away she can. 

River and Daisy banter like brother and sister throughout the entire book. Since they have known each other as long as they have they know how to push each other's buttons. River knows how to get into Daisy's pants also, and Daisy knows how to get under River's skin.

Will Kane be able to keep pushing Daisy? Or will she come clean about why she's really in Chicago and why she needs to live with her brother? Will Kane come clean about the gambling addiction? 

I did receive a free ARC book copy of this book. I am freely leaving an honest review.
